Over 1/3 of the way through the season we are shooting over 40% from 3. 5 guys shoot 39% or better. Our worst shooter is at 33%. It is possible that the percentage will drop in Big 12 play because we'll be on the road more and we'll face better defenses overall (but not better "3PT defenses, that's just dumb), but this team has proven it can shoot and will shoot in the upper 30s in Big 12 play.
their team 3% will drop because most of them aren't this good of shooters. i'll be surprised if wade, stokes and brown don't finish the year with lower %s than they have now. stokes, i think can be a high 30s guy, brown and wade are mid 30s at best.
Brown can be a really good shooter. Most guys improve in their 2nd year and over their career and he shot 34.5% in Big 12 play last year. He's now 35% for his career. I think he'll finish in the upper 30s this year.
Stokes was 36% in 8 conference games, 34% for the year, and now 36% for his career. I think he and Brown will be about the same for their careers.
Wade is a wildcard. I doubt he'll continue at this 45% pace, but he's better than the 28% he shot last year (21% in Big 12). Maybe he's having his Shane Southwell outlier year. We'll see, but I'd guess he'll finish the year in the mid to low 30s and shoot around 30% in Big 12.
Westicles is another bit of a wildcard. He's at a respectable 33% and last year's 20% was his worst. He's right at 30% for his career.
I think Sneed is a legit shooter, but he probably hits a freshman funk at some point and likely won't stay at 41%. I'd say mid 30s is attainable.
Ervin is kind of the Martavious of this team. He hasn't shot a lot, but 40% is nice after 17% last year. Probably finish around 30% or so I'd guess.
I think this team is more than capable of 36-38% for the year and 33-35% through Big 12 play minimum.
